Just bought a new lathe today, so if anyone wants me to make some stuff let me know...

Ie. ISO stiffeners, or swing arm spacers...

I myself will be making some spacers to use the XB forks on the tuber tripples

Damn, didn't realize how dirty my shop laptop was till I posted that pic.

Blew it off and cleaned up it up some.

The sphere in cubic cage is neat. I really like stuff like that. Take it up another notch and do a sphere in a cube in a triangular pyramidal cage? Betcha can't do it. : ]

James,

The one underneath looks even more challenging. Looks like it's inner edges are straight even though the dimensions are even more challenging (smaller cube).

How'd you do it?

"And I bet your ass you didnt make that on a lathe. LoL."

The material for the cube was squared up on the mill, the ball was turned in the lathe(indexed 6 times) then back on the mill where the windows were cut.

I sent one to Oldog a year or so ago,the sphere in that one was bead blasted,I think he is still trying to figure out how I blasted the sphere without blasting the cage.

Google "turners cube", many have turned a ball in a ball in a cube.

I kinda cheated, made a collet to hold the cubes because I didn't want to indicate it in the 4 jaw for each step.

Okay then, modify my "take it up another notch" challenge above; make the sphere from copper alloy, the cube from titanium, and the pyramidal cage from Inconel. : ]

Optical illusion, both are the same.
Must be the camera angle.

I love that "desk art" stuff!

Project for your lathe; I made some of my own clamps for bar end mirrors. The ones you get are cheap! I will send you some dimensions. Mine fit 7/8 bars, clamp the mirrors in tight, and are also easy to remove. I bet lots of guys will want a set.

You know, it would be nice to get ahold of the drawings for the various machined parts that H-D will run out of in time...
